Pulp manufacturers have been pushing for price hikes since the start of the year. World's largest bleached eucalyptus kraft pulp producer Suzano is set to tack on $60/t for March in Europe.
Brazil's pulp producers Suzano has anounced another price increase for hardwood pulp. The latest initiative encompasses a $60/t price hike on the markets in Europe and North America, and a $20/t price hike in Asia.
Last month, the company had already announced similar price hikes for February.
Suzano is the world's largest pulp producer. In 2024, the company increased its pulp deliveries by 7 per cent year-on year to 12.3 million t, mainly driven by the additional eucalyptus pulp (BEK) capacity from the new Ribas do Rio Pardo pulp mill in Brazil.
